TEMPLE  OF  THE  SUN  IN  THE  GROUNDS  OF  THE  ALTAR  OF 
HEAVEN,  PEKING.  THESE  GROUNDS  HAVE  BEEN  TURNED 
INTO  AN  EXPERIMENTAL  SCHOOL  OF  AGRICULTURE 
AND  FORESTRY— ONE  OF  THE  MANY  INDlCAi 
TIONS  OF  THE  CHANGES  IN  CHINA. 


THE  NEW  CHINA 


Never  before  have  such  sweeping  changes  occurred 
in  any  nation  as  have  taken  place  in  China  in  the 
last  three  years.  The  most  startling  of  all  was 
that  from  an  absolute  monarchy,  thousands  of  years  old, 
to  a republic. 

No  wonder  China  is  busy  with  many  and  difficult  prob- 
lems of  readjustment.  In  our  Western  lands  the  changes  that 
followed  the  break-up  of  the  Middle  Ages;  the  revival  of 
learning,  the  religious  reformation,  the  securing  of  consti- 
tutional government,  the  bestowal  of  the  franchise  and  the 
introduction  of  labor  saving  machinery,  were  spread  out  over 
several  centuries.  In  China  these  changes  are  all  taking 
place  all  at  once. 


CHANGED  ATTITUDE  TOWARD 
CHRISTIANITY 

Of  several  causes  that  have  led  to  the  changed  condi- 
tions in  China,  Christianity  has  been,  the  most  influential. 

The  Vice-President  of  the  Republic — Li  Yuan  Hung, 
who  is  one  of  the  most  beloved  men  in  China  has  said  ; 
“ China  would  not  be  aroused  as  it  is  today  were  it  not  for 
the  missionaries  .” 

Up  to  a few  years  ago  there  existed  a great  prejudice 
against  Christianity  but  when  freedom  of  religion  was  as- 
sured by  the  provisional  constitution  of  the  republic  that 


3 


prejudice  largely  disappeared  and  Christians  are  no  longer 
despised  but  regarded  with  respect  and  esteem. 

Under  the  Adanchu  rule  students  of  Mission  Schools 
and  Christian  Chinese  preachers  w'ere  not  allowed  to  vote 
for  delegates  to  the  Provincial  assemblies.  Under  the  pres- 
ent regime  they  not  only  vote  but  may  be  members  of  the 
assemblies  and  have  been  appointed  to  many  high  offices. 

President  Yuan  has  openly  voiced  his  admiration  for 
Christianity  and  the  hope  that  its  principles  will  be  at  the 
foundation  of  the  new  government.  He  contributes  yearly 
^1,000  towards  Christian  missionary  work. 

Though  not  a Christian  himself  the  manager  of  the 
Nanking  railway  said  recently:  “Confucianism  has 
supplied  China  with  precepts  in  the  past,  but  China 
imperatively  needs  Christianity  today  to  supply  her 
with  moral  power.  Many  leading  men  are  turning  toward 
Christianity  as  the  hope  of  China;  it  is  a sign  of  the  times.” 

There  is  a movement  on  foot  in  China  to  reinstate  Con- 
fucianism as  a state  religion.  Even  this  is  a hopeful  sign 
as  it  shows  the  desire  of  the  Chinese  literati,  ignorant  of 
the  real  weaknesses  of  Confucianism  and  of  the  power  of 
Christianity,  to  find  some  moral  basis  on  which  the  New 
China  may  be  built. 

That  China  is  realizing  her  need  of  moral  strength  and 
help  wherever  she  can  get  it  was  evidenced  by  the  Day  of 
Prayer  appointed  for  April  27,  1913. 

WHERE  THE  OLD  RELIGIONS  OF 
CHINA  HAVE  FAILED 

China  has  had  Taoism  for  twenty-four  hundred  years, 
Confucianism  for  twentv-three  hundred  years.  Buddhism  for 


4 


eighteen  hundred  years  and  Mohommedanism  for  twelve 
hundred  years.  The  one  hundred  years  in  which  she  has 
had  Christianity  in  a modern  form  have  done  more  for  her 
than  milleniums  of  other  faiths. 

These  old  religions  have  failed  to  protest  against  evil 
and  overcome  it.  They  have  failed  to  teach  love  for  the 
suffering,  the  blind,  the  unfortunate  and  the  outcast.  They 
have  left  the  sick  to  die  on  the  streets  unbefriended  and 
uncared  for.  They  have  failed  to  create  living  ideals  and 
to  form  a national  conscience. 

The  late  Tuan  Fang  one  of  China’s  strongest  statesmen 
speaking  at  a meeting  of  Chinese  business  men  in  Shanghai 
said:  “Our  Chinese  religions  crown  our  hills  with  tem- 
ples but  do  nothing  for  the  people  in  the  cities  at  their  feet. 
The  Christian  religion  fills  our  cities  with  schools  and 
hospitals  which  minister  to  the  needs  of  our  inhabitants.” 


CHINA’S  GREATEST  NEED 

Much  as  China  needs  a strong  central  government, 
commercial  development,  financial  reorganization,  educa- 
tional reform,  her  greatest  need  is  moral  character.  She 
needs  the  power  and  uplift  for  individual  and  nation  that 
Christianity  alone  can  give.  She  s daily  feeling  the  im- 
pact of  American  and  European  commerce,  diplomacy, 
education,  and — with  shame  let  it  be  said — American  and 
European  vices. 

The  question  whether  the  new  China  is  to  be  a Christian 
nation  or  not  depends  very  largely  on  the  adequacy  of  our 
Christian  mission  schools  and  their  ability  to  supply  the 
people  with  Christian  readers,  both  ordained  and  lay.

FEW  OF  THE  CLERGY  WHO  HAVE  BEEN  TRAINED  BY  OUR  AMERICAN 
MISSIONARIES  FOR  THE  SERVICE  OF  THE  CHURCH  IN  CHINA. 


WHAT  HAS  THE  CHURCH  DONE  TO 
SUPPLY  NEW  CHINA  WITH 
CHRISTIAN  LEADERS? 

Many  of  our  mission  school  and  college  graduates  are 
in  positions  of  leadership  and  influence  for  good  in  the 
new  movement  in  China.  Our  Chinese  clergy  are  not 
only  splendid  pastors  and  teachers  but  they  are  among  the 
most  public  spirited  men  and  most  sought  after  leaders  in 
their  localities.  Our  young  mission  trained  laymen  are 
not  onlv  helping  to  build  up  a strong  native  Church  but 
they  are  powers  in  the  new  national  and  civic  life. 

The  Secretary  of  the  late  Board  of  Foreign  Affairs  at 
Peking — late  of  the  Chinese  Legation  at  Washington  and 
now  Minister  to  Germany — is  the  son  of  a Chinese  priest 
in  our  Mission.  He  ;s  a former  student  of  St.  John’s 
College  and  a devout  Christian. 

The  chairman  of  the  committee  which  drafted  the  tenta- 
tive constitution  of  the  new  republic  was  Mr.  C.  T.  Wang, 
a Christian  worker  of  wide  influence,  the  son  of  a Chinese 
priest  of  the  Church  of  England  Mission.  He  was  a 
trusted  advisor  of  President  Yuan  in  the  early  days  of  the 
republic,  acting-minister  of  Industry  and  Commerce  in 
Yuan  Shih-kai’s  first  cabinet  and  is  now  Vice-President  of 
the  national  Senate. 

Mr.  Alfred  Sze,  now  Chinese  Ambassador  to  the  United 
States  and  Mr.  L.  K.  Koo,  one  of  President  Yuan’s  secre- 
taries, are  graduates  of  St  John’s  University,  Shanghai. 

OUR  CHURCH  MISSION 

The  American  Church  Mission  entered  China  in  1842. 
A few  years  later  the  Church  of  England  began  work,  fol- 
lowed recently  by  the  Church  of  England  in  Canada.  In 
1912  the  eleven  dioceses  established  by  these  Churches 


7 


united  in  forming  the  Church  in  China — the  Tsung  Hua 
Sheng  Kung  Hui.  This  united  Church  has  fourteen 
hundred  Chinese  helpers  at  work  and  hundreds  more  in 
training.  Thus  there  has  been  created  in  China  a Church 
which  some  day  will  be  strong  enough  to  govern  itself, 
support  itself,  and  extend  itself  without  help  from  abroad. 

The  three  American  dioceses  are  Shanghai,  Hankow  and 
Anking.  They  have  : 

3 — Bishops. 

35 — Clergymen — foreign. 

42 — Clergymen — native. 

86 — Catechists. 

37 — Bible  Women. 

285 — Native  Teachers, 
and  property  valued  at  $1,347,837. 

OUR  PRESENT  RESPONSIBILITY 

During  China’s  present  period  of  reconstruction  Christ- 
ianity is  face  to  face  with  the  greatest  opportunity  she  has 
had  to  Christianize  great  portions  of  the  human  race  since 
Apostolic  times.  There  is  to  be  a new  China;  whether 
or  not  it  is  to  be  Christian  China  depends  in  a great  mea- 
sure whether  the  Christians  of  the  West  will  strengthen 
the  work  of  the  Christian  Church  in  China.  But  the  op- 
portunity is  passing  and  in  a few  years  time  the  new  China 
will  become  fixed — for  good  or  for  ill — a blessing  or  a 
menace  to  mankind.  What  we  are  to  do  for  China  we 
must  do  now. 

Realizing  the  obligation  resting  upon  the  American 
Church  the  Board  of  Missions  asks  for  the  means  to 
strengthen  our  forces  and  increase  our  equipment  immedi- 
ately. 

It  is  a time  above  all  others  to  make  adventures  and  in- 
vestments for  God  in  China.  The  Church  should  invest 


8 


$500i000  there  in  the  next  three  years.  W e should  send 
one  hundred  and  thirty-two  new  missionaries  in  the  next 
five  years.  They  should  be  classified  as  follows  : 


Ordained  Men

The  Church  should  realize  the  solemn 

responsibility 

that  rests  upon  her  at  this  time  and  make 

earnest  prayer 

that  this  ancient  people  and  modern  force  may  be  brought 
into  the  family  of  God. 

The  detail  statements  which  follow  from 

the  Bishops  in 

China  indicate  where  some  of  the  needs  lie 

and  what  can 

be  done  with  certain  amounts.  Correspondence  concern-

A GENERAL  VIEW  OF  THE  BUILDINGS  OF  ST.  JOHN’S  UNIVERSITY,  SHANGHAI. 


DISTRICT  OF  SHANGHAI 


ST.  JOHN’S  UNIVERSITY 

SHANGHAI  is  easily  the  most  important  and 
influential  city  of  China.  St.John’s  University 
was  established  in  1879  as  a boys’  grammar  school. 
It  has  advanced  steadily  in  size  and  in  the  quality 
of  its  work  until  now  it  is  universally  recognized  as 
the  leading  educational  institution  of  the  Orient.  It 
has  been  called  the  “Harvard  of  China.”  Students 
in  all  departments  number  about  400.  There  is  no 
American  college  that  comes  as  near  to  self-support 
as  St.  John’s.  But  its  income  is  not  sufficient  to 
pay  running  expenses  and  provide  new  equipment. 
The  institution  has  outgrown  the  original  twelve 
acre  trad:  in  which  it  started.  In  191 1 opportunity 
offered  to  secure  most  desirable  property  of  twelve 
acres  immediately  adjoining  the  college.  It  was  the 
chance  of  a life-time  and  had  to  be  accepted  even 
though  debt  was  incurred.  The  property  cost  ap- 
proximately $81,000.  Of  this  St.  John’s  still  owes 
$60,000.  On  $50,000  it  is  paying  an  annual  inter- 
est charge  of  $3,000.

Medical  School 


The  work  of  medical  missions  in  China  has 
now  passed  the  stage  of  the  mere  relief  of  suf- 
fering. Last  year  in  its  wards  and  dispensaries  St. 
Luke’s  Hospital  treated  67,000  patients.  On  all 
sides  there  is  a rapidly  growing  demand  for  foreign 
medicine  and  medical  science.  The  most  important 
work  before  medical  missions  in  the  future  is  that 
of  education.  The  permanent  value  of  what  we 
have  already  done  depends  now  on  the  training  up 
of  Chinese  physicians  and  nurses.  It  will  be  many 
years  before  the  Chinese  Government  will  be  able 
to  provide  scientific  medical  training.  There  are  no 
Medical  Schools  in  China  except  the  Missionary 
Schools. 

We  have  the  opportunity  now  by  stressing  this 
end  of  our  missionary  work,  of  making  a strong 
Christian  impress  upon  the  coming  medical  profes- 
sion of  China. 

Our  three  missionary  districts  in  China  have 
united  in  forming  one  medical  school  to  be  located 
in  Shanghai  in  connection  with  St.  Luke’s  Hospital. 
We  want  to  make  it  worthy  of  our  other  work  in 
China.  We  have  the  land.

St.  Mary’s  School 

ST.  Mary’s  Hall  is  aiming  to  do  for  the  young 
womanhood  of  China  what  St.  John’s  is  doing 
for  its  young  manhood.  This  school,  started  in 
1884,  has  become  one  of  the  best  known  and  most 
highly  valued  mission  schools  for  girls  in  China. 
The  cost  of  its  past  success  is  its  present  need.  It  is 
now  crowded  to  the  point  of  having  more  than  two 
hundred  students  in  buildings  erected  for  one 
hundred.  Large  numbers  of  applicants  are  turned 
away  yearly.  No  more  significant  change  has 
occured  in  China  than  the  growing  demand  for  the 
education  of  its  womenhood.  Present  conditions, 
in  China  require  high  grade  schools  for  girls. 

It  is  earnestly  desired  to  secure  a new  site  and 
erect  new  buildings  for  St.  Mary’s  transferring  the 
present  buildings  and  site  to  St.  John’s  University 
in  the  campus  of  which  they  are  located.  A suitable 
plot  of  ground  is  now  for  sale.

Our  work  opened  in  1 900.  In  the  midst  of  a wealthy 
distridl,  with  many  towns  and  villages  of  importance. 
Wusih  might  be  made  a strong  base  for  wide  evan- 
gelistic work,  especially  as  the  “School  for  Catechists” 
is  situated  here  and  provides  students  who  can  take 
part  in  such  work.  It  also  supplies  trained  catechists 
for  opening  new  mission  stations.  We  have  a resident 
dodlor  but  no  adequate  hospital.  The  Chinese  congre- 
gation has  far  outgrown  the  hall  in  the  parish  house 
where  services  are  being  held.  More  people  want  to 
come  to  church  than  can  get  in.  We  own  all  the  land 
needed  at  present.

ago.  It  was  the  capital  of  the  wealthiest  vice-royalty 
of  Manchu  China.  It  is  a large  and  busy  city. 
Our  work  opened  here  in  1908.  We  have  two  ex- 
cellent missionaries  in  the  city  and  a piece  of  land 
with  a small  chapel.  Besides  schools  and  residences 
we  ought  to  have  a large  worthy  church  with  which

WUCHANG 


HE  intellectual  center  for  80,000,000  people  is  the 


seat  of  one  of  the  principal  viceroyalties  in  the  old 
China.  Our  work  opened  here  in  1868.  Population 
200,000,  including  thousands  of  government  students. 
These,  with  the  hundreds  of  officials  and  influential  pri- 
vate citizens  offer  a magnificent  opportunity. 

Our  opportunity  in  Wuchang  is  greatly  enhanced  by 
the  existance  and  prestige  of  Boone  University,  the  leading 
educational  institution  of  central  China.  With  two  large 
churches  at  strategic  points  in  the  city  we  should  have  a 
chance  to  influence  religiously  the  leaders  of  central  China 
and  to  dominate  a city  that  dominates  80,000,000  people. 
Bishop  Roots  reports  the  need  of  St.  Peter’s  Hospital  for 
equipment  as  the  greatest  present  need  in  his  diocese. 
During  the  Revolution,  it  was  prominently  before  the 
Chinese  through  the  Red  Cross  work  of  which  the  physi- 
cian in  charge  was  President,  and  its  opportunities  for 
service  have  greatly  increased.  For  several  years  St.  Peter’s 
has  sought  to  do  its  large  work  in  rented  Chinese  buildings. 
In  gratitude  for  Dr.  MacWillie’s  services  ;^5,ooo  has 
been  contributed  locally  for  a permanent  hospital  site,  of
